I don't require that my cat furniture be perfect so the slight scratches and the fact that the doors don't perfectly align is just fine with me. It looks plenty good enough for my closet or my living room but I wouldn't want it in a small place where you would be looking at the imperfections when you sit down.

 Best of all, you can buy a liner that protects the inside from overspray, important given that one of my cats can't figure out how to squat. I bought extra liners for the future use. The liners essentially make a box-within-a-box that fastens with velcro. I bought the Litter Catch that goes with it, too. It's well designed but and does catch a lot of litter but I still need to sweep the area at least every other day. It doesn't do much to stop the dust but then again, my cats all dig to China.
